The coverage of his 2004 win includes the joyous final stage and champagne toast in Paris, along with the encouragement throughout the race from superstar musician Sheryl Crow.

The retrospective Lance Armstrong: Historic Six-Time Tour de France Champion also details Armstrong's inspiring fight against cancer, his foundation, and the intense training methods and strong will that have helped turn him into one of America's biggest sports heroes. It's a truly special way to remember yet another remarkable record-setting race!
